Lady Hamster has a cow.  You can too!  Or a quarter or a half!  2nd generation Bellingham grass fed cow.  She will be processed on the 21st, and age for about 3 weeks.  The cost is $1.75 a pound to the farmer, $.55 a pound average to the butcher, Kaiser Meats, for custom cut and wrap.  The other cost is the kill cost, which last year was $70.  If you take a quarter of the animal, then you would pay a quarter of that cost, etc.  I'm getting 1/4 of one of her two cows.  There are 4 quarters left as of today.  Write her at: hamsterfarm@hotmail.com

Garden Kit Project 2011 Sign up or sign up someone you think would benefit. Free garden kits in two sizes: container/square foot garden, regular. Originally begun as way to provide seeds to beginning gardeners, marginal income gardeners, students, and children with adult supervision, garden kits are for anyone who is gardening in small spaces. Designed to provide a long harvest in the Fourth Corner. Garden kit comes with two free tomato starts.
Seed for kits is saved, swapped, donated and purchased. Volunteers are welcome to help clean seed and pack the kits. Sunday afternoons 2:00 - 4:00 in January and February, please first (360) 756-8957 to sign up for a garden kit or volunteer to help with seed cleaning. Donations cheerfully accepted.
Thank you to all the 2010 volunteers and donors, who packed seed for 45 kits, 5 charities, 2 school gardens.

Heirloom tomato, pepper and herb starts for sale April-June. Proceeds fund garden kits. Pre-order to reserve particular varieties.

I'm interested as well...will wait for final price with taxes etc....

Wow, I'm pleased at all the interest in home-scale oil production. This all came, by the way, out of a free sample of Bija pumpkin seed oil at the Co-op last week. Bija is a Canadian company that has a plant in Lynden and makes a variety of oils from Whatcom County stock (wherever possible).

I think what I'll do is call on Monday to find out about fees/taxes/shipping, thanks Shannon for the idea, and that might influence whether one big group order would be best or if other groups of 4 should form. If you want to put it in your e-news, Shannon, that would be fine. At the least I can inform people. Send them to laurasellens@gmail.com. A working link to piteba: http://www.piteba.com/

To everyone who has expressed interest, thanks! I think I'll give this post another week or so, to see if anyone else expresses interest or anyone from the e-news, and then I'll contact you to make a plan.

Ah....thank you. I should have looked closer.
Comment by Charles Kelm on November 27, 2010 at 10:08am
Angela - the link works if you chop of the last two letters "if". Yes, it does nuts - one of it's specialties. There is a site just over the border in Surrey that sells these for $189, so this is a good deal.
